Summary:
An Italian SME, specialized in additive manufacturing, has developed a way to manufacture customized components both in ceramic and in metal material, with an achievable accuracy 0.1 mm.
The versatility of the method is very high and is available for a large number of industrial sectors, from the aeronautics and energy sectors up to the medical field.
They are looking for a manufacturing agreement.
Description:
Founded in 2017, the Italian engineering company is specialized in additive manufacturing, applied overall to aeronautics and power generation sector.
In few time, they become a certified supplier of top player companies in the market, thanks to both an innovative process and a new powders mixture.
Starting from a very serious problem in the aeronautics sector, the production of components in advanced materials with an high accuracy degree, the company has developed a process based on additive technologies and customized materials to obtain components that are difficult to work using standard techniques and therefore require long and expensive processing cycles.
The innovativeness of the process developed with respect to the state of the art lies in the extremely high dimensional accuracy and in the materials suitable for aeronautical processes, developed internally by the company. In fact, compared to the solutions proposed by competitors, the company allows a high configurability of materials, many of which are difficult to work with standard techniques, in many cases overcoming several technological limits due to the presence of internal cracks.
The company offers are also the following services:
- design service and topological optimization of components;
- mechanical machining of milling, turning and electrical discharge machining (EDM) for the finishing of components;
- dimensional checks thanks to coordinate-measuring machine and 3D scanners;
- mechanical and chemical tests on components.
The process can utilize several kind of materials, such as ceramic, steel, inconel and titanium. Therefore the service can be valid for aeronautics, automotive, energy, critical industry and medical sector.
The company is looking for international enterprises, interested in long-term production activities, by signing a manufacturing agreement, in order to develop and produce new types of components, with all the characteristics required by the commitment.
